Resumo(s)
Cultural heritage has traditionally been studied within two realms: that of the nation-state, and that of other institutionalising bodies such as UNESCO. Scholars have highlighted a tendency in the area of heritage to prioritise heritage practitioners and the state over heritage users in the heritage creation processes (Harrison Citation2013). Works by critical heritage scholars, such as Laurajane Smith's (Citation2016; Citation2021), have enabled a critical approach to these institutionalised discourses on heritage, oriented towards the listings and canonising of what deserves to be heritage. The thaw introduced by the development of critical heritage studies has enabled a shift from heritage as an ‘authorised discourse’ to other forms of heritage practices. This ‘performative turn’ in heritage studies (Harrison Citation2013; Macdonald Citation2013; Smith Citation2016) has encouraged scholars to look at heritage beyond institutional lenses. In doing so, the materiality of heritage has been questioned (yet not rejected – see Smith Citation2016). Monuments, heritage sites and landscapes have started to be seen as a pretext for performing heritage and the main focus of critical heritage scholars has shifted to the actions of individuals and groups when engaging with heritage. This has further relegated heritage objects and sites to the role of supporting heritage processes, rather than its core focus. The processual nature of heritage has been recognised and highlighted, along with its dependence on meaning-making and the mobilisations/actions of the individuals engaging with it. In other words, what people do with heritage, what meaning it gains through the everyday negotiations of its users, has become more important than its materiality and the institutionalised narratives about it.
